Girl, six, is forced to marry 55-year-old man in exchange for a GOAT being given to her father in Afghanistan
Both the girl's father and new husband Seyed Abdolkarim have been arrested (inset) after a concerned relative raised the alarm because Abdolkarim was allegedly 'undressing the girl at night'. According to the father, who also allegedly received rice, tea, sugar and cooking oil for his daughter, he and his family were desperate for food and by selling his daughter (main picture, centre) he had one less mouth to feed. He also insisted that the new husband of the girl, named only as Gharibgol, had sworn not to have sex with her until she turned 18. After the wedding, Abdolkarim reportedly took the girl to a relative's house in Firozkoh, in Ghor province, pretending she was his daughter.
